For technical questions regarding estimation of single equations, systems, VARs, Factor analysis and State Space Models in EViews. General econometric questions and advice should go in the Econometric Discussions forum.

OK thank you.I would like ask your professional judgement on one issue :

the simulation gave multiple converging results but most of them having different coefficient values. SSR values are also different. I conclude that there are multiple local optima in the search range. Moreover when I rank by SSR values in ascending order, the minimum SSR has some converged coefficient values way off of theoretical expectations. So in the overall I conclude that the results are inconclusive for empirical purposes and a better algorithm should be used in stead.
